Miami Heat Roud 2 Series Thread

[bksballer89]

So what do you guys think? Both teams already won a game 7 this playoff season. Should be fun. Just have to wonder how much we have in the tank. Could a G.G get some minutes and go off?

I feel ok. Like our chances more than I did after game 5 knowing that we changed to a smaller lineup which is what we needed.

We survived to live another day.

As far as Sunday, if we play a complete 48 minutes, of course we can win.
It's win or go home.
We responded in Charlotte, let's do it again.

Hassan is traveling but won't play per Ethan Skolnick.

What that tells me is that if we advance that Hassan will attempt to play one of the first 2 in Cleveland. Otherwise he would stay in Miami to rehab

Why not just stay in Miami and rehab?
It's not like they couldn't get him to Cleveland on Monday if they win.

Maybe hes playing mind games telling them he aint playing then he suits up sunday and doesnt leave them time to adjust their game plan lol.. We can win if dragic plays like did tonight. If wade plays great and either deng or JJ show up

I know some were hoping he would play in gam 7 but the expectation seemed to always be that he wouldn't make it. Surely if we advanced he could be ready given this development.

If we win, by the start of game 1 of the ECF, it will have been nearly 2 weeks, which appears to be identical to what Stephen Curry went through. But I think we're all in agreement in saying that Whiteside should sit out game 7 for his own well being.

Very much in agreement on this one

Hopefully this make all of us feel a little better about tomorrow afternoon.

Heat have granted teams permission to interview coach Fizdale for job openings.

Whatever helps

It can't even be an excuse if JV isn't playing.
With both being out it turns into an advantage for us because Whiteside was being outplayed.
Now, maybe that was because he was already hurting???


As far as today, of course I want to win...but if we don't...I'm satisfied with the season as a whole and making it 2 rounds with 2 games 7 is valuable growing pains and experience for all of our guys who have never been through it.

I think all of us on here agree with this. Those guys who had no playoffs experience entering the playoffs now have a lot and they've been put in some tough situations. Being down 3-2 and winning a series was huge and being down 3-2 and forcing a game 7 is just as huge.

 

[Paolo305613]

This season and post-season has already been a success at this point. To say otherwise would just be stupid.

This will go a long way for our young guys who have shown time and again they are made for the NBA.

The present is bright for the Heat - the future is only brighter.

Win or lose -- be competitive. Thats all I want today

Would've been nice to have our best cheer guy there with the crew for game 7

 

[Paolo305613]

Lets win it for CB

 

[Paolo305613]

Same starters and inactives. Our C of the future Justise Winslow starting again

 

[avalon2423]

Lets go boys! We need JJ big time this game.
